Hmm, I couldn't find an explicit statement of this in the manual, but it
looks to me that, since we're using the 'display text property, the
:scale property will already be relative to the text that _would have
been displayed there_. IOW, we're already scaled to the text. The text
property is applied to the "^Gnus:" part of a string, so 5 characters,
and that's our base.
Anyway, if you're concerned that the icon might bulge out the mode line
or something, I don't think that will happen.
